Atlanta placed Hernandez on the 15-day injured list Friday, retroactive to June 5, with right forearm inflammation.

Hernandez exited Wednesday's game due to numbness in his right pinky, but he's been added to the injured list with a forearm injury. Hernandez has been a dependable option out of the bullpen this season, posting a 2.22 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 24.1 innings. Dylan Dodd was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett in a corresponding move.

Atlanta recalled Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Dodd has bounced back and forth between the majors and Triple-A, and he'll join the big-league bullpen Friday. Dodd hasn't allowed a run in 1.2 innings with Atlanta this season, but he owns a 5.40 ERA across 18.1 innings with Gwinnett.

Rolison will open Friday's game against the Mets, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Rolison will make his first big-league start Friday, but he'll likely only pitch an inning or two before handing the ball off to Antonio Senzatela. In seven appearances this season, Rolison has a 4.50 ERA spanning 10 innings.

Atlanta selected Kimbrel's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Kimbrel is set for his 2025 MLB debut, joining Atlanta's bullpen after logging a 2.45 ERA in 14.2 innings with Gwinnett this season. His role within the bullpen is unclear, but the 37-year-old will look to reclaim his previous form after logging a 5.33 ERA in 2024 with Baltimore.

The Phillies optioned Johnson to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.

Johnson made his 2025 MLB debut Thursday, allowing one run over two innings. With the Phillies having a bullpen game Friday against Pittsburgh, they'll add a fresh arm to the bullpen in Alan Rangel. Johnson has a 4.91 ERA over 33 innings with Lehigh Valley this season.

The Phillies recalled Rangel from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.

Rangel will provide some immediate help to the Phillies' bullpen ahead of Friday's bullpen game against the Pirates. He'll be making his MLB debut if he gets into a game. The 27-year-old has a 5.02 ERA in 57.1 innings spanning 12 starts for Lehigh Valley this season. Seth Johnson was optioned in a corresponding move.

The Marlins recalled Veneziano from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.

The left-hander was demoted to Jacksonville in mid-May after posting a 4.86 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 15:8 K:BB in his first 20 appearances of the season. Veneziano will rejoin the Marlins on Friday with Jesus Tinoco (forearm) landing on the injured list.

The Marlins placed Tinoco on the 15-day injured list Friday with a right forearm strain.

Tinoco didn't strike out a single batted over his last five appearances and had been deployed in low-leverage situations lately, so it's possible he's been hurt for a while. Per Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com, an MRI on Tinoco's forearm didn't reveal any structural damage, but it's not clear how long he might be shelved.

Scott surrendered a hit but recorded two strikeouts in the ninth inning to pick up the save during Thursday's 6-5 win over the Mets.

After his closer status was put into question following a rocky outing Monday, Scott has posted back-to-back scoreless appearances. Right back in a save situation Friday, he needed 21 pitches to finish off his 11th save, but he posted two more strikeouts to make it 31 on the season, for a K/9 rate of 10.1. The 30-year-old southpaw is now 11-for-16 on save opportunities for the season.

Doval earned the save in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Padres, allowing two hits while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning.

After suffering a blown save in his last appearance Tuesday, Doval found himself in trouble again against the Padres, allowing a pair of singles that put the tying and go-ahead runs on base. However, Doval would rebound to strike out Jake Cronenworth for the final out, closing out a one-run Giants victory. Doval's allowed just two runs in his last 22.2 innings while reclaiming the ninth-inning job in San Francisco. His ERA sits at 1.61 on the year with a 0.96 WHIP and 25:13 K:BB across 28 innings while converting eight of 11 save opportunities.
